The question, when TO plant is important
Some will not plant any thing in the fall,
others prefer the fall to all other seasons; the
majority of planters will, perhaps, claim that
spring is the best season. for the largest amount
of planting is done at that time. and failure is
not attributed SO much to the season. Fall plant
ing, however, has strong advocates among ex-
perienced tree planters, and where planter has
given that season fair trial. his favorable testi-
mony is, a rule. secured However. there is
prejudice against fall planting, and single
failure at that season counts more
against it than a dozen in the
spring. Trees and shrubs planted early in autum
will push roots before winter, for it is neces-
sary that the top grow to force root growth, all
can prove this by observation. Take up tree
shrub in November that planted in
August or September. and you will be surprised
to the amount of new apd growing roots A
fall planted tree becomes established by this
means, and naturally is in a better condition to
grow the coming spring l believe if careful
and systematic experiments were carried on in
tree planting, the fall would be found better
season to plant than in spring; the ground is
warn and moist, in the best condition for the
formation of roots, the air is moist and there is
not tie fierce drying winds of early spring

Terminated by Death.

Special to the 1ndianapoIis Journal
WASHINGTON, Aug 4.-The famous Vincennes
starch works case brought to a sudden
close this afternoon by the announcement of the
death of the principal plaintiff in the suit
James H Cunningham, an eighty-seven- year
old millionaire, of Madison. The trial had been
in progress since Monday, but, by consent, was
postponed. The death of Mr.. Cunningham will
cause some complications in the case that may
prevent another trial, and at any rate it will
likely be years before the case comes up again.
j. A. Cunningham, the other plaintiff, is a son
of James H.. and it is reported, cut out by
his fathers will, in which case he would have but
little more TO do with the case. This is one of
the largest suits ever tried in the State. an
amount equal to 5000. 900 being involved. It has
been twice tried, and was once in the Supreme
Court The defendant was the Evansville g
Terre Haute Railroad Company, and the plant
ifs claimed that their starch-works, at Vim
cenres, were burned by defendants locomotive
in 1879.
